Adding NetBackup policies for DB2 EEE environment
The following policies must be configured for a DB2 EEE environment:
A DB2 type policy with an Application Backup schedule type.
Include only one Application Backup schedule type. Delete the schedule that is called Default-Application-Backup.
For complete instructions on how to create this type of schedule, see the following:
In the client list, include all clients you want to back up, including the DB2 catalog node.
A DB2 policy with an Automatic backup schedule.
Include one of the following schedule types: Automatic full backup, Automatic differential incremental backup, or Automatic cumulative incremental backup. This policy should contain only one automatic backup schedule type.
For complete instructions on how to create this type of schedule, see the following:
Do not specify the automatic backup schedule name in the
$DB2_Instance_Home/db2.conf file. For a proxy backup, do include the automatic backup schedule name.Include only the clients that contain the DB2 catalog node and that run a DB2 script. The script uses the IBM db2_all command to archive the DB2 catalog nodes before any other node is backed up.
Create a Standard type policy with a User Backup type schedule if the following apply:
The user exit program for logging is turned on in DB2 UDB.
The client is a UNIX machine.
